6pm Mass band

When I first started leading the band at the then 6.30pm Mass I didn't realise the impact it would have on the youth ministry as a whole. We play contemporary music at this Mass with a full band including keys, drums, bass occasionally string instruments etc. There are more and more young people getting involved. And my goodness are they talented. Playing at Mass can be really intense because you are under so much pressure to get it right, to come in at the right time, to not be a distraction and to help enhance the communion and worship we are partaking in through the Eucharist. And we don't always get it right...
